OP, I suggest you start a new thread about what you're here to discuss. The intro forum is not for discussion or debate, so everyone please take it elsewhere. Thank you!
/Mod hat
So, what style of mod hat do you have?
I think a fedora would suit you. (not a green one, though).
Driver's caps... I'm a hat person (I own >100), but fedoras are awful on me. This is my favorite:

Welcome! So you're not talking about biological evolution, you're talking about cosmology?
And why would you try to be as biased as possible? I can see the virtue of admitting your biases, but not so much for elevating them.
Edit: I guess I'll follow you to your new thread and see.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Hi new guy! Hope to see you around the boards if I haven't already!
May I ask what the bias is in your religious view? I mean, I have a few suspicions, but I'm not one to put words into your mouse.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Oh?----and what does the origin of the universe have to do with the Theory of Evolution, or the Theory of Natural Selection for that matter. Because if you think the origin of the universe has anything to do with either, you don't know what the Theory of Evolution is.
None the less welcome.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Religious con-men teach 6 stupid evolution concepts, instead of the actual scientific one, so religious people do get a bit confused.
